HID: hid-thrustmaster: Fix warning in thrustmaster_probe by adding endpoint check
syzbot has found a type mismatch between a USB pipe and the transfer
endpoint, which is triggered by the hid-thrustmaster driver[1].
There is a number of similar, already fixed issues [2].
In this case as in others, implementing check for endpoint type fixes the issue.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: core: Fix assumption that Resolution Multipliers must be in Logical Collections
A report in 2019 by the syzbot fuzzer was found to be connected to two
errors in the HID core associated with Resolution Multipliers. One of
the errors was fixed by commit ea427a222d8b ("HID: core: Fix deadloop
in hid_apply_multiplier."), but the other has not been fixed.
This error arises because hid_apply_multipler() assumes that every
Resolution Multiplier control is contained in a Logical Collection,
i.e., there's no way the routine can ever set multiplier_collection to
NULL. This is in spite of the fact that the function starts with a
big comment saying:
* "The Resolution Multiplier control must be contained in the same
* Logical Collection as the control(s) to which it is to be applied.
...
* If no Logical Collection is
* defined, the Resolution Multiplier is associated with all
* controls in the report."
* HID Usage Table, v1.12, Section 4.3.1, p30
*
* Thus, search from the current collection upwards until we find a
* logical collection...
The comment and the code overlook the possibility that none of the
collections found may be a Logical Collection.
The fix is to set the multiplier_collection pointer to NULL if the
collection found isn't a Logical Collection. |

topology: Keep the cpumask unchanged when printing cpumap
During fuzz testing, the following warning was discovered:
different return values (15 and 11) from vsnprintf("%*pbl
", ...)
test:keyward is WARNING in kvasprintf
WARNING: CPU: 55 PID: 1168477 at lib/kasprintf.c:30 kvasprintf+0x121/0x130

The call trace shows that kvasprintf() reported this warning during the
printing of core_siblings_list. kvasprintf() has several steps:
(1) First, calculate the length of the resulting formatted string.
(2) Allocate a buffer based on the returned length.
(3) Then, perform the actual string formatting.
(4) Check whether the lengths of the formatted strings returned in
steps (1) and (2) are consistent.
If the core_cpumask is modified between steps (1) and (3), the lengths
obtained in these two steps may not match. Indeed our test includes cpu
hotplugging, which should modify core_cpumask while printing.
To fix this issue, cache the cpumask into a temporary variable before
calling cpumap_print_{list, cpumask}_to_buf(), to keep it unchanged
during the printing process. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
quota: flush quota_release_work upon quota writeback
One of the paths quota writeback is called from is:
freeze_super()
sync_filesystem()
ext4_sync_fs()
dquot_writeback_dquots()
Since we currently don't always flush the quota_release_work queue in
this path, we can end up with the following race:
1. dquot are added to releasing_dquots list during regular operations.
2. FS Freeze starts, however, this does not flush the quota_release_work queue.
3. Freeze completes.
4. Kernel eventually tries to flush the workqueue while FS is frozen which
hits a WARN_ON since transaction gets started during frozen state:
ext4_journal_check_start+0x28/0x110 [ext4] (unreliable)
__ext4_journal_start_sb+0x64/0x1c0 [ext4]
ext4_release_dquot+0x90/0x1d0 [ext4]
quota_release_workfn+0x43c/0x4d0
Which is the following line:
WARN_ON(sb->s_writers.frozen == SB_FREEZE_COMPLETE);
Which ultimately results in generic/390 failing due to dmesg
noise. This was detected on powerpc machine 15 cores.
To avoid this, make sure to flush the workqueue during
dquot_writeback_dquots() so we dont have any pending workitems after
freeze. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: netem: account for backlog updates from child qdisc
In general, 'qlen' of any classful qdisc should keep track of the
number of packets that the qdisc itself and all of its children holds.
In case of netem, 'qlen' only accounts for the packets in its internal
tfifo. When netem is used with a child qdisc, the child qdisc can use
'qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog' to inform its parent, netem, about created
or dropped SKBs. This function updates 'qlen' and the backlog statistics
of netem, but netem does not account for changes made by a child qdisc.
'qlen' then indicates the wrong number of packets in the tfifo.
If a child qdisc creates new SKBs during enqueue and informs its parent
about this, netem's 'qlen' value is increased. When netem dequeues the
newly created SKBs from the child, the 'qlen' in netem is not updated.
If 'qlen' reaches the configured sch->limit, the enqueue function stops
working, even though the tfifo is not full.
Reproduce the bug:
Ensure that the sender machine has GSO enabled. Configure netem as root
qdisc and tbf as its child on the outgoing interface of the machine
as follows:
$ tc qdisc add dev <oif> root handle 1: netem delay 100ms limit 100
$ tc qdisc add dev <oif> parent 1:0 tbf rate 50Mbit burst 1542 latency 50ms
Send bulk TCP traffic out via this interface, e.g., by running an iPerf3
client on the machine. Check the qdisc statistics:
$ tc -s qdisc show dev <oif>
Statistics after 10s of iPerf3 TCP test before the fix (note that
netem's backlog > limit, netem stopped accepting packets):
qdisc netem 1: root refcnt 2 limit 1000 delay 100ms
Sent 2767766 bytes 1848 pkt (dropped 652, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
backlog 4294528236b 1155p requeues 0
qdisc tbf 10: parent 1:1 rate 50Mbit burst 1537b lat 50ms
Sent 2767766 bytes 1848 pkt (dropped 327, overlimits 7601 requeues 0)
backlog 0b 0p requeues 0
Statistics after the fix:
qdisc netem 1: root refcnt 2 limit 1000 delay 100ms
Sent 37766372 bytes 24974 pkt (dropped 9, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
backlog 0b 0p requeues 0
qdisc tbf 10: parent 1:1 rate 50Mbit burst 1537b lat 50ms
Sent 37766372 bytes 24974 pkt (dropped 327, overlimits 96017 requeues 0)
backlog 0b 0p requeues 0
tbf segments the GSO SKBs (tbf_segment) and updates the netem's 'qlen'.
The interface fully stops transferring packets and "locks". In this case,
the child qdisc and tfifo are empty, but 'qlen' indicates the tfifo is at
its limit and no more packets are accepted.
This patch adds a counter for the entries in the tfifo. Netem's 'qlen' is
only decreased when a packet is returned by its dequeue function, and not
during enqueuing into the child qdisc. External updates to 'qlen' are thus
accounted for and only the behavior of the backlog statistics changes. As
in other qdiscs, 'qlen' then keeps track of how many packets are held in
netem and all of its children. As before, sch->limit remains as the
maximum number of packets in the tfifo. The same applies to netem's
backlog statistics. |

net: stmmac: fix TSO DMA API usage causing oops
Commit 66600fac7a98 ("net: stmmac: TSO: Fix unbalanced DMA map/unmap
for non-paged SKB data") moved the assignment of tx_skbuff_dma[]'s
members to be later in stmmac_tso_xmit().
The buf (dma cookie) and len stored in this structure are passed to
dma_unmap_single() by stmmac_tx_clean(). The DMA API requires that
the dma cookie passed to dma_unmap_single() is the same as the value
returned from dma_map_single(). However, by moving the assignment
later, this is not the case when priv->dma_cap.addr64 > 32 as "des"
is offset by proto_hdr_len.
This causes problems such as:
dwc-eth-dwmac 2490000.ethernet eth0: Tx DMA map failed
and with DMA_API_DEBUG enabled:
DMA-API: dwc-eth-dwmac 2490000.ethernet: device driver tries to +free DMA memory it has not allocated [device address=0x000000ffffcf65c0] [size=66 bytes]
Fix this by maintaining "des" as the original DMA cookie, and use
tso_des to pass the offset DMA cookie to stmmac_tso_allocator().

ALSA: control: Avoid WARN() for symlink errors
Using WARN() for showing the error of symlink creations don't give
more information than telling that something goes wrong, since the
usual code path is a lregister callback from each control element
creation. More badly, the use of WARN() rather confuses fuzzer as if
it were serious issues.
This patch downgrades the warning messages to use the normal dev_err()
instead of WARN(). For making it clearer, add the function name to
the prefix, too. |

icmp_route_lookup() create input routes for locally generated packets
while xfrm relookup ICMP traffic.Then it will set input route
(dst->out = ip_rt_bug) to skb for DESTUNREACH.

route is loopback. Generally, xfrm relookup verification is not required
on loopback interfaces (net.ipv4.conf.lo.disable_xfrm = 1).
Skip icmp relookup for locally generated packets to fix it. |

netlink: terminate outstanding dump on socket close
Netlink supports iterative dumping of data. It provides the families
the following ops:
- start - (optional) kicks off the dumping process
- dump - actual dump helper, keeps getting called until it returns 0
- done - (optional) pairs with .start, can be used for cleanup
The whole process is asynchronous and the repeated calls to .dump
don't actually happen in a tight loop, but rather are triggered
in response to recvmsg() on the socket.
This gives the user full control over the dump, but also means that
the user can close the socket without getting to the end of the dump.
To make sure .start is always paired with .done we check if there
is an ongoing dump before freeing the socket, and if so call .done.
The complication is that sockets can get freed from BH and .done
is allowed to sleep. So we use a workqueue to defer the call, when
needed.
Unfortunately this does not work correctly. What we defer is not
the cleanup but rather releasing a reference on the socket.
We have no guarantee that we own the last reference, if someone
else holds the socket they may release it in BH and we're back
to square one.
The whole dance, however, appears to be unnecessary. Only the user
can interact with dumps, so we can clean up when socket is closed.
And close always happens in process context. Some async code may
still access the socket after close, queue notification skbs to it etc.
but no dumps can start, end or otherwise make progress.
Delete the workqueue and flush the dump state directly from the release
handler. Note that further cleanup is possible in -next, for instance
we now always call .done before releasing the main module reference,
so dump doesn't have to take a reference of its own. |

bpf: Fix overloading of MEM_UNINIT's meaning
Lonial reported an issue in the BPF verifier where check_mem_size_reg()
has the following code:
if (!tnum_is_const(reg->var_off))
/* For unprivileged variable accesses, disable raw
* mode so that the program is required to
* initialize all the memory that the helper could
* just partially fill up.
*/
meta = NULL;
This means that writes are not checked when the register containing the
size of the passed buffer has not a fixed size. Through this bug, a BPF
program can write to a map which is marked as read-only, for example,
.rodata global maps.
The problem is that MEM_UNINIT's initial meaning that "the passed buffer
to the BPF helper does not need to be initialized" which was added back
in commit 435faee1aae9 ("bpf, verifier: add ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK type")
got overloaded over time with "the passed buffer is being written to".
The problem however is that checks such as the above which were added later
via 06c1c049721a ("bpf: allow helpers access to variable memory") set meta
to NULL in order force the user to always initialize the passed buffer to
the helper. Due to the current double meaning of MEM_UNINIT, this bypasses
verifier write checks to the memory (not boundary checks though) and only
assumes the latter memory is read instead.
Fix this by reverting MEM_UNINIT back to its original meaning, and having
MEM_WRITE as an annotation to BPF helpers in order to then trigger the
BPF verifier checks for writing to memory.
Some notes: check_arg_pair_ok() ensures that for ARG_CONST_SIZE{,_OR_ZERO}
we can access fn->arg_type[arg - 1] since it must contain a preceding
ARG_PTR_TO_MEM. For check_mem_reg() the meta argument can be removed
altogether since we do check both BPF_READ and BPF_WRITE. Same for the
equivalent check_kfunc_mem_size_reg(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Prevent tail call between progs attached to different hooks
bpf progs can be attached to kernel functions, and the attached functions
can take different parameters or return different return values. If
prog attached to one kernel function tail calls prog attached to another
kernel function, the ctx access or return value verification could be
bypassed.
For example, if prog1 is attached to func1 which takes only 1 parameter
and prog2 is attached to func2 which takes two parameters. Since verifier
assumes the bpf ctx passed to prog2 is constructed based on func2's
prototype, verifier allows prog2 to access the second parameter from
the bpf ctx passed to it. The problem is that verifier does not prevent
prog1 from passing its bpf ctx to prog2 via tail call. In this case,
the bpf ctx passed to prog2 is constructed from func1 instead of func2,
that is, the assumption for ctx access verification is bypassed.
Another example, if BPF LSM prog1 is attached to hook file_alloc_security,
and BPF LSM prog2 is attached to hook bpf_lsm_audit_rule_known. Verifier
knows the return value rules for these two hooks, e.g. it is legal for
bpf_lsm_audit_rule_known to return positive number 1, and it is illegal
for file_alloc_security to return positive number. So verifier allows
prog2 to return positive number 1, but does not allow prog1 to return
positive number. The problem is that verifier does not prevent prog1
from calling prog2 via tail call. In this case, prog2's return value 1
will be used as the return value for prog1's hook file_alloc_security.
That is, the return value rule is bypassed.
This patch adds restriction for tail call to prevent such bypasses. |

x86/mm: Fix pti_clone_pgtable() alignment assumption
Guenter reported dodgy crashes on an i386-nosmp build using GCC-11
that had the form of endless traps until entry stack exhaust and then
#DF from the stack guard.
It turned out that pti_clone_pgtable() had alignment assumptions on
the start address, notably it hard assumes start is PMD aligned. This
is true on x86_64, but very much not true on i386.
These assumptions can cause the end condition to malfunction, leading
to a 'short' clone. Guess what happens when the user mapping has a
short copy of the entry text?
Use the correct increment form for addr to avoid alignment
assumptions. |

nilfs2: fix nilfs_empty_dir() misjudgment and long loop on I/O errors
The error handling in nilfs_empty_dir() when a directory folio/page read
fails is incorrect, as in the old ext2 implementation, and if the
folio/page cannot be read or nilfs_check_folio() fails, it will falsely
determine the directory as empty and corrupt the file system.
In addition, since nilfs_empty_dir() does not immediately return on a
failed folio/page read, but continues to loop, this can cause a long loop
with I/O if i_size of the directory's inode is also corrupted, causing the
log writer thread to wait and hang, as reported by syzbot.
Fix these issues by making nilfs_empty_dir() immediately return a false
value (0) if it fails to get a directory folio/page. |

wifi: iwlwifi: read txq->read_ptr under lock
If we read txq->read_ptr without lock, we can read the same
value twice, then obtain the lock, and reclaim from there

entry twice, resulting in the WARN_ONCE() a little later.
Fix that by reading txq->read_ptr under lock. |

rtnetlink: Correct nested IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST attribute validation
Each attribute inside a nested IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST is assumed to be a
struct ifla_vf_vlan_info so the size of such attribute needs to be at least
of sizeof(struct ifla_vf_vlan_info) which is 14 bytes.
The current size validation in do_setvfinfo is against NLA_HDRLEN (4 bytes)
which is less than sizeof(struct ifla_vf_vlan_info) so this validation
is not enough and a too small attribute might be cast to a
struct ifla_vf_vlan_info, this might result in an out of bands
read access when accessing the saved (casted) entry in ivvl. |

fs/aio: Check IOCB_AIO_RW before the struct aio_kiocb conversion
The first kiocb_set_cancel_fn() argument may point at a struct kiocb

depending on the compiler, the req->ki_ctx read happens either before
the IOCB_AIO_RW test or after that test. Move the req->ki_ctx read such
that it is guaranteed that the IOCB_AIO_RW test happens first. |
